You think you can hide but you're never alone,; Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
Our conversation was short and sweet; It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
An' here I sit so patiently; Waiting to find out what price; You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice.
When I met you, baby,; You didn't show no visible scars.
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night,; And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,; I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,; For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go; To the valley below
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
Put your ear to the train tracks, put your ear to the ground,; You ever feel like you're never alone even when there's nobody else around?; Since the beginning of the universe man's been cursed by trouble.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
I see people in the park forgetting their troubles and woes; They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright colored clothes; All the young men with their young women looking so good; Well, I'd trade places with any of them ; In a minute, if I could
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
Can't you make any sound?
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"; He said, "You're not Him"
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,; I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,; And all your ragin' glory.
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
You could ride like Annie Oakley,; You could shoot like Belle Starr.
How does it feel
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't; But not tonight and it won't be here; There are things I could say but I don't; I know the mercy of God must be near
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,; Carefully removes his fez,; "Am I hearin' you right?"
I couldn't see where we were goin'; But you said you knew an' I took your word
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
Well, you're so bad and nasty; But I love you, yes I do
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
